The next generation of computer coders.

Later this term St. Mark’s will be participating in the Hour Of Code, the largest global learning event in the world. In the Hour Of Code, students are encouraged to investigate and learn about the ways in which computer science is applied to a variety of applications.

Coding, which is a form of “Computational Thinking”, is marked as an essential fluency for students of today who will work in the jobs of tomorrow. These jobs are likely to be heavily influenced by technology and the ability to use it to solve problems.

Hi it’s Sienna P. and Sam P.,
We have made our own version of flappy bird today. We had lots of fun making it, and learning about coding computers. We learnt a lot today.
Here is a link to our game: https://studio.code.org/c/122385776
We hope you enjoy playing our game of flappy bird.
By for now 🙂

In ICT, the year 4’s have made their own version of flappy bird! It was really fun because we get to code our own game!! The problems that my group had to solve was: We had to figure out how to set the speed, background, e.t.c. My group were working really well which means we got to finish it. Here is a link to the game! -> https://studio.code.org/c/122385860
See ya!!

We had to think about the game and how it worked. Our flappy bird game is different because we made the background and the flappy bird different and it is harder than you think. This is our link to our flappy bird game https://studio.code.org/c/122385412.

Hi it’s Charli & Dylan,
We have just created our own game called Flappy Shark ( flappy bird ). We are very excited and cant wait for you to try it .Here is our link copy and past it to play https://studio.code.org/c/122385388 . It was really hard at first but we worked together and figured it out and we hope you enjoy and have fun .

The thinking skills we needed were being able to cooperate with each other, to be able to see what types of sounds work well together and to be able to place things in the right spots.

Our flappy bird game is different because when you pass a pipe the background changes. Another thing that is different are the sounds. Also that you can get a different character every time you play it. And last of all the gravity changes in the game every time you play.

Hey guys it’s Vivien here, also on behalf of Tyler,

Today I did some coding here is my link. I made my own Flappy Bird. Flappy Bird is a game on ipad, phone and computer. Try to download the game on your device and see if it is cool. It was a fun experience and this is the link to my game -> https://studio.code.org/c/123936282
Bye for now!

I created my own flappy bird game!
Ok, I know that it doesn’t sound like anything but there is something cool about it: When you program the bird to do an action there is actually a hidden message telling the computer to do it. It’s called Coding. I’ll give you the link to the game I created.

I just created my own flappy bird game it was really easy to make it. I even change the settings on it. It was SO cool to make my own versions and when I tested it, IT WAS SO EASY! Here is the link . |

Hi everyone!
We 3/4’s learn’t the hour of code, and to do that we made our own flappy bird games custom made. Just beware that you don’t get raged because mine is a trick, try and find out the secret! here’s the link: https://studio.code.org/c/123932732
(Just copy and paste, I don’t know why it doesn’t go in a link.)
